I recently upgraded from at 7600 to a 8620. With the 7600 I used HP Solutions to scan documents to a pdf file. During the preview portion, I could change the page order. This is an especially important function when the printer skips a page when pulling the document through. With the 8620 I am forced to use HP Scan Extended, which does not seem to have this functionality. So, how do I change the page order prior to saving a scan. I recently had to scan a 51 page document. The printer skipped a page. I tried to add the page immediately after the missing page, but it tacked it on to the end. Then, I couldn't change the page order to move it to the correct position. This new software appears to be a complete nightmare! Why would you remove that important functionality? I had to scan the document 4 times before it was correct. I hope there is a way to resolve this.

Hi,
That can surely be done with HP Scan Extended:
- Open the HP Scan Extended software from your computer.
- Select Save as PDF.
- Ensure the box next to 'Show Viewer after scan' is checked and press on Scan, as well as a resolution of 300 DPI or lower.
- Within the preview pane drag the shown thumbnails of the scanned pages at the required order, by holding your mouse button over the image and dragging it.
